'Kono Subarashi Sekai ni Syukufuku Wo! Kurenai Densetsu:(2019) Review


Kono Subarashi Sekai ni Syukufuku Wo! Kurenai Densetsu(God's Blessing in this Wonderful World! Crimson Legend) Anime Movie Review 

Basic Plot :- Satou Kazuma, an introvert dies while seemingly saving a girl from a terrible accident. Aqua, the goddess of water, informs him that he's the chosen messiah(which he definitely was NOT) for a parallel game world which is been suffering from the wrath of Devil King and he will get a special power to accompany him, Kazuma chooses Aqua, thinking she would be useful(which she definitely was NOT). Later the Kazuma was joined by Megumin, an arch wizard from the clan of crimson demons and Dustiness Ford Lalatina(Darkness), a pervert crusader, with season 2 ending like this.

This movie revolves around the legend of Crimson demons, and a knight of Devil King's army Sylvia.

Characters :- Satou Kazuma along with his adventuring party Megumin, Darkness and Aqua are the main protagonists in the movie, along with YunYun, the daughter of the Chief of Crimson Demons, and Megumin's self proclaimed rival. Megumin receives a monstrous amount of character development in the series, which is on par with YunYun and Kazuma. We even saw a different side of generally pervert, Darkness. Aqua just had her arc before this movie, so it was fine for her being on the sidelines for a bit.

                           Megumin
       Dustiness Ford Lalatina(Darkness)
                              YunYun
The supporting characters mainly, Wiz and Vanir, two Devil King's knights which essentially switched sides and said we saw a great chemistry between Vanir and Darkness, and having a limited screentime Wiz continued her glory run she retained from the past arc.

The main antagonist Sylvia was one of Devil King's strongest knights and a chimera. She has a body of female with a penis thus being partially male, common to her race. She had been hungry for love, as the only ones who confessed to her were Goblins and ocres. She has been shown to have an affection towards Kazuma, and a special hatred towards lovely female humans.

The Crimson Demons like Komekko, Megumin's parents(YuiYui and Hyozaburoo), the Chief, Aure, Dodonko, the Professor(Flashback), Ocres and Goblin army have all had their bits to the movie.

                      Megumin's Parents

                          Dodonko

BGM and OSTs :- Retaining the EXPLOSION track from the series, the movie added some badass fight BGMs to it. The OP Little Symphony and ED My Home Town being somewhat decent.

My Thoughts :- Megumin is awesome, arguably the best loli ever. The ship moments in this movie was GOLD, with her tsundere side being more highlighted than ever. Her background story was shown in a funny way, but was pretty emotional in the hindside.


Aside from that the movie had pretty cool fighting animations, coupled with great voice acting and pace. The best part of the movie is even if you're not that familiar with the series, you won't be much or rather not at all puzzled during the movie. All in all, I highly recommend the movie.


Ratings :- 8.75/10.
